RAILROAD earnings for the first
week of September, as far as reported,
show smaller gain than in previous
weeks in the past few months. The
increase was per cent, sixty-two
roads being represented. 1t is well to
state here, however, that the earnings
of the first six days of September, 1885,
the period with which the week referred
to is compared, were unusually large.

Dyspepsia is dreadful. Disordered

The human digestive apparatus is
one of the most complicated and won

Greasy food, tough food, sloppy food,
bad cookery, mental worry, late hours,
irregular habits and many other things
which ought not to be, have made the
American people nation of dyspep-

BY HER OWN ACT,
Mrs. Hudson Unmasked Through Taking
an Overdose of ChloraI.


The woman who was registered at Ewing:
Hotel in Jersey City recently as Mrs. Irving
by Lawyer Abraham Suydam, of New York
and who took an overdose of chloral there
which gave rise to the suspicion that she hac
attempted suicide. is on the fair road to re
covery, at Christ Hospital, on the hill Be
sides the physicians who are attentive to hel
physical welfare at the hos pital, detective
is on guard to see that Mrs. Irving, whose
real name is Mrs. Emma s. Hudson, does
not escape the law which wants her very
badly, to answer for certain Irregularities
condemned by the statute book.
Mrs. Hudson's latest offense-for she pos
sesses varied and interesting record-was
committed about two months ago, when she
drove up to the store of Aitken, Son & Co., at
Broadway and Eighteenth street, New York,
and, alighting from her carriage in magnif-
cent apparel, wenti in and purchased quantity
OF silk. The clerks were all obsequiousness
to the impressive lady, and when she ordered
the bill sent to Mrs. c. J. Lawrence, of 81
Park avenue, and the goods to the Grand
Central station, it was all that the handsome
floor walker could do to restrain himself
from rushing out upon the sidewalk bare
headed and helping the rich bankers wife to
mount the carriage step. Mrs. Hudson got
the silk in due course, but Aitken, Son & Co.
could never collect the money. They re-
ported the facts to the police, and she was
traced to al West Forty-first street. but on
the. advice of her attorney, Abraham Suy-
dam, she skipped to Jersey City under an as
sumed name.
DR.. Emma S. Hudson, as she called her
self, was notorious in Boston as early as
1885. On February Is of that year the Bos-
ton Herald devoted four columns to history
of Mrs. Hudson. She was described as
widow who never used an alias and who had
swindled hundreds of victims in Boston, in
Guiding many business firms She was in
variably accompanied in her operations by
her daughter. Amy, prepossessing young
girl, and their joint swindlings in Boston
alone at that time were estimated as amount
ing to upward of $4,000. Mrs. Hudson is
the daughter of well-to-do New England
manufacturer. In 1870 she married Method
mately studied medicine, and was known as
DR.. E. s. Hudson. His wife's conduct is
said to have hastened his death.
When, in March, 1885, M rs. DR.. Hudson
was arrested for swindling the proprietor Of
the Coleman House, New York. she created
a scandal by publishing series ofletters pur-
porting to be written to her by the Rev. J.
b. Drysdale, a young clergyman of the Prot.
estant Episcopal Church Mr.. Drysdale had
been an assistant of the Rev DR.. Morgan, Of
St Thomas Church, and the letters created
IN church circles. Mr.. Drysdale Indignantly
denied that there had been anything i'm
proper in the relations between himself and
Mrs Hudson, and the matter was quickly
hushed up. Mrs. Hudson asserted that
IDrysdale owed her $121, which she had lent
him, and with which he promised to pay
her hotel BILL

A ROW OVER THE ANARCHISTS.
Turbulent Scenes at the Central Labor
Unions Meeting.

OAilOh 11OCb1IS'
NEW YORK, Sept. 25.-The Central Labor
Unions meeting to-day came near being the
scene of free fight. A series of resolutions
were offered calling upon the Union to con-
denim the Illinois Supreme Court Judges for
sentencing the seven Anarchists in Chicago.
The resolutions were listened to quietly, but
as soon as they were finished Delegate Vein
stein, q printer, moved that committee be
appointed to call a mass meeting to con-
denim the sentence.
This was followed by motion to lay the
resolutions on the table. The Socialists
protesed vehemently, and the motion was
lost.
Then the Anarchists were attacked by
Hugh w. Horskey, of the Carpenters and
Joiners Union, and Vice Chairman Nc
Kimm made furious onslaught upon all
Socialists and Anarchists.
The uproar following was deafening and
the proprietor of the hall appeared upon
the platform begging the delegates to desist
as his business would be ruined by such a
noise on Sunday afternoon.
Comparative quiet being restored George
G.. Block, of the National Bakers
Union, began speaking on the resolu-
tions He was interrupted by cry of
God bless the hand that threw that
bomb"
YES" added Mr.. Black; "God bless that
bomb"
The majority of the delegates cried
''Shane," and another scene of confusion
ensued.
Finally a motion was made to call the
previous question, and this was adopted
